As a teenager, I eagerly anticipated the arrival of each new season because it meant embarking on a quarterly trip to Nordstrom with my mom to revamp my wardrobe. Although each outing was enjoyable, the most exciting one was shopping the highly anticipated Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, which takes place every July.
The annual sale was a significant event in my life. It was a fantastic opportunity to stock up on the best wardrobe basics, such as button-down shirts and straight-leg jeans, and on-trend pieces like chunky sneakers and billowy dresses. I also enjoyed exploring the exclusive only-at-Nordstrom products from top brands in fashion, beauty, and more.
Although my mother no longer accompanies me, I continue the ritual of shopping the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale once a year. On the opening day of the sale, as a Nordy Club member, I make sure to join the queue to take advantage of the substantial savings. This year was no different. The day it kicked off, I headed to the Nordstrom flagship store in New York City, searching for the best fashion deals to help me achieve The Row style on a budget, otherwise known as my 2024 aesthetic.
After trying on numerous items, I carefully selected 17 pieces that seamlessly complemented my extensive wardrobe and showcased their extraordinary versatility. Scroll ahead to discover the fantastic fashion deals I snagged at the 2024 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and explore other amazing sale items that I spotted while browsing the sale online.
How long is Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale in 2024?
The 2024 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale begins on July 15 and continues until August 4. Early access for Nordstrom cardmembers starts on July 9.
Is Nordstrom's Half-Yearly or Anniversary Sale better?
The Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale is known for its top-notch discounts, but in my humble opinion, the Anniversary Sale is better. During the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, shoppers can enjoy amazing discounts on top designer brands like Sam Edelman, Levi's, Madewell, Free People, and more. This annual event offers exclusive deals that are hard to beat, making it a highly anticipated shopping event for savvy fashion enthusiasts.
Is the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale only once a year?
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is an annual savings event where shoppers can find great deals on clothing, accessories, beauty products, and home décor items. Act fast—once these amazing pieces sell out, they're gone for good.
Every year, I wait for Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale, mainly because it's the perfect time to snag some fantastic deals on women's jeans. During my latest visit, I came across a pair of sophisticated wide-leg, cuffed jeans that immediately caught my eye. I've never tried jeans from Wit & Wisdom, but they're a dream come true. They fit true to size, feel incredibly soft, and have a comfortable elastic waistband at the back. Despite their more relaxed fit, the dark wash gives them a sleek and elegant appearance. Whether I wear them as part of this ensemble or style them separately, these are a timeless addition to my wardrobe.
When it came to styling, I paired the pants with a classic striped button-down shirt, a lightweight crochet sweater perfect for layering, and refined slingback heels. I can't wait to wear this stylish and versatile look from the summer to the fall.

During the summertime, I tend to wear dresses, particularly favoring simple tank or T-shirt styles, but my recent discovery on the dress sale rack was a game changer. I stumbled upon a stunning textured tank dress from Vince. The dress features a unique sheer-like material that adds a touch of elegance without being see-through. Plus, the color was a wonderful choice for me to break away from the all-black outfits I usually wear in the city.
Its formfitting silhouette inspired me to experiment with layering, and I decided to pair it with an oversize denim jacket to play with contrasting proportions. With its deep indigo wash and striking gold stitching, the jacket exudes an effortlessly chic vibe. Also, the rigid texture of the denim gives it a high-end, designer aesthetic that I adore. To maintain my signature New York style, I completed the look with a spacious tote bag perfect for carrying all my daily essentials.

As someone who works in a hybrid model, I'm always searching for the perfect stylish yet professional outfit. I was thrilled to discover that Nordstrom had a fantastic selection of business-chic pieces that met my needs.
After trying a few options, I settled on a sleek monochrome look featuring a tailored vest and trousers from Open Edit. This sophisticated ensemble expertly combines current trends with a timeless, professional aesthetic. The vest and kitten heels exude a contemporary vibe while maintaining a classic appeal ideal for the office.

I always opt for a simple and coordinated set whenever I want to look put-together without effort. When I stumbled upon this elegant ivory two-piece from Good American, I immediately knew it was perfect for me. I was drawn to the understated utilitarian details that added a touch of attitude to the ensemble, and the fact that the set was affordably priced at under $250 made it even more appealing.
For a jacket, I decided on an oversize brown leather bomber jacket, which ended up taking my look to the next level. The pairing garnered several compliments in the fitting room, making me more eager to purchase. I embraced Allison Bornstein's wrong-shoe theory for footwear and opted for an unexpected twist by pairing the outfit with chunky New Balance sneakers.

I have been keeping an eye on the latest fashion trends, and recently, I noticed a surge in the popularity of one-and-done denim dresses. Intrigued by the movement, I decided to give it a try. To my delight, I found a wide array of denim dresses while browsing through Nordstrom's collection. Among the many options, this Frame dress stood out with its stylish tie belt and elegant long hem.
To add a touch of sophistication to the dress, I paired it with a chic Coach shoulder bag and classy slingback flats. While the Frame number has unfortunately sold out, I've shared another denim dress option that is just as cute and is now on my radar. Hurry and get it before it's all gone!
